Dear Abby,

   I'm a helpless mother. My son Tom is 15 years old. I find that the older he grows,the less we talk. I feel very sad and I really need help.

   My first problem is about his hobbies. He spends almost all his spare time on computer games. When he gets home,he always turns on the computer and closes the door. I'm getting worried about him,especially when his English teacher tells me he always gets low marks in the English exams.

   Second,he likes new technology,but I don't have enough money and I can't afford all the things he wants.

   Recently,I've found that he is always alone. I've never seen him talking to his friends on the phone or going out with anyone on weekends. That is the last problem I have.

   What should I do to help him? Please give me some advice.

   One day a teacher stood before his class and picked up a large empty glass bottle and filled it with rocks. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was. He then added a box of pebbles to the jar,shaking it lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the rocks. “Is the jar filled now?” The students said yes.

   But then he poured a bag of sand into the bottle. The sand filled in everything else. Once more he asked if it was full and after some thinking they said that it was.

   The teacher then opened two cans of beer and poured them into the jar. The students were very excited about this demonstration.

   The teacher spoke again, “I want you to know that this jar represents (代表) your life. The rocks are the important things in your life: your family,your partner,your health …things that if everything else was lost and only they remained,your life would still be full. The pebbles are the other things that matter,like your job,your house,and your car. The sand is everything else. If you put the sand into the jar first,there is no room for the pebbles or the rocks”. “The same goes for your life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff,you will never have room for the things that are important to you. Play with your friends. Take time to get medical checkups. Take care of the rocks first. The else is just sand. ”

   Then one of the students asked what the beer represented.

   “It just goes to prove that no matter how full your life may seem,there's always room for a couple of beers. ”

   Last night I was driving from Harrisburg to Lewisburg,distance of about eighty miles. It was late. Several times I had to stop to wait a while behind a slow-moving truck on a narrow road,and I became impatient.

   At one point along an open road,I came to a crossing with a traffic light. I was alone on the road by now,but as I drove near the light,it turned red and I made a stop. I looked left,right and behind me. Nothing. Not a car,no suggestion of car lamps,but there I sat,waiting for the light to change,the only human being for at least a mile in any direction.

   I started wondering why I refused to run the light.I was not afraid of being caught,because there was clearly no policeman around,and there certainly would have been no danger in going through it.

   Much later that night,the question of why I'd stopped for that light came back to me. I think I stopped because it's part of a contract we all have with each other. It's not only the law,but it is an agreement we have,and we trust each other to follow it: we don't go through red lights.

   The whole construction of our society depends on mutual (相互的) trust. We do what we say we’ll do; we show up when we say we’ll show up; and we pay when we say we’ll pay. We trust each other in these matters.

   I was so proud of myself for stopping for the red light that night. And as no one would ever have known what a good person I was on the road from Harrisburg to Lewisburg.

1. Why did the author get impatient while driving?

   A. Because he was lonely on the road.

   B. Because he was slowed down by a truck.

   C. Because he got tired of driving too long.

   D. Because he came across too many traffic lights.

2. What did the author do when the traffic light turned red?

   A. Stopping still.

   B. Driving through it.

   C. Looking around for other cars.

   D. Checking out for traffic police.

3. The underlined word “contract” in the passage probably means “”.

   A. 旅程

   B. 忍耐

   C. 契约

   D. 释放

4. Then rent made the author strongiy bdieve that.

   A. traffic rules may be unnecessary

   B. doubting others is human nature

   C. patience is important to drivers

   D. a society needs mutual trust

   You can buy chewing gum in nearly every country of the world.① But it wasn’t always like that.

   The American Indians were the first people to chew gum. This gum came from a special tree that grew on their land. In 1848,a sailor called John Curtis began selling it. He was the first person to sell chewing gum. The gum he sold cost just a few cents for two pieces. It became popular very quickly even though it was very hard to chew.② Nowadays,other things are added to the gum to make it soft and sweet.

   By 1890,there were hundreds of different chewing gums. The most famous name in chewing gum,however,is probably William Wrigley. He spent a lot of money in advertising and even sent free pieces of gum to children on their birthdays.③ He also said that chewing gum helped people work better and that it stopped people from feeling tired.

   Although today many millions of people chew gum,not everyone thinks it is a good thing to do. Many people think it is dirty. The Singapore government does not allow people to buy chewing gum. One reason for this is that when some people have chewed all the taste out of their piece of gum,they take it out of their mouths and put it on to the backs of seats or other places.

1. 请将①处翻译成汉语。

2. 请根据②处内容完成下面句子。(每空一词) 

People make chewing gum soft and sweet something to it.

3. 把③处改为直接引语。(每空一词) 

He also said, “Chewing gum people work better and it people from feeling tired. ”
